JOEL BIO
In 1995, Brothers, Joel Madden and Benji Madden went to their first concert - the Beastie Boys' Ill Communication Tour - and were so psyched by the show, they formed Good Charlotte two weeks later with their high school buddy Paul Thomas .
In 1998, Good Charlotte moved to Annapolis, Maryland to get in on the booming music scene.
The band worked low paying jobs to make rent while they played bars, clubs and parties. Guitarist Billy Martin joined the Good Charlotte line-up and record labels started to take notice. Good Charlotte eventually signed with Epic.

QUOTEZ
"Benji's the evil twin."
"Benji had definitely been called a freak. I mean, I've been called a freak, too, but he's definitely more freaker than I am."
"I used to go to punk shows and not feel like I was punk enough to be there.
"We don't want kids to come to our shows and feel like that -- like they have to be dressed a certain way,
act a certain way or even know all the words. We just want them to come and have a good time."
"It's great to freak people out, because they have no idea that i'm a nice person."
--Joel (on people getting the wrong impression of him by his looks)
"There's a lot of kids out there who go through hard times, and we want them to feel like they can listen to our CD
and depend on us when they're feeling bad."
